Excerpt:
I am completely overwhelmed. My core is on fire and I want so much to kiss him, to touch him. I feel sparks of electricity shoot through every fiber in my body and every nerve ending is screaming for release. I want his hands on me, all over me.
“Amare?”
I put my hands on his chest and push him away. He’s too close, making it hard to form a single thought. I take two steps to the side to put some distance between us so I can speak like a human, not a lust induced zombie. “Yes, they towed my car and it’s in their lot. I haven’t really spoken to them about it yet. I kind of fell asleep on them…”
His face clouds over and he says, “You kind of fell asleep on them? What. Does. That. Mean?” He pauses between each word and growls them at me.
“Jonas took me to see Doc Jordan and he gave me something for the pain, but because I hadn’t slept in days it made me sleepy. I think he ended up carrying me to their clubhouse.” I realize how all this must sound. If someone told me that exact same story, I would be thinking the worst.
“Did they touch you, Amare?” he growls at me, his eyes blazing with anger.
“No, no, no! In fact, Jonas put a guard on my door so no one would go near me. Not that they would. I was safe, Sal.” Something crosses his face and he stares at me so intently that I look away and stare at the floor. He moves back into my space and lifts my head up. “Thank you for getting me coffee. Let’s go have breakfast and I’m buying. I think I shall keep you in my sights to make sure nothing else happens to you. I have never met a woman who allows herself to get into so many dangerous situations, in such a short space in time. You, my Amare, are a handful.” He moves away from me and does up his shirt, then grabs his jacket. He opens the door to his room and extends his arm. “Shall we?” he asks, offering me a smile that reveals his dimple. My core clenches again and I have to fight the urge to throw myself at him.

My Thoughts:
The
author recommends that you should read this series in order and I have to
agree. If you haven’t read Savage Stalker you may not know some of
what is going on. It can be read as a
stand-alone but why would you.
Emily
Reynolds’ story starts off with a situation that a lot of people can identify
with. You meet her brother in book
one. Salvatore Agostino is a competitor
to the Savage Angels. He’s also a little
tougher – or at least he thinks so. And
he shows the reader that he has a soft side as well.
This
author holds nothing back in writing her scenes and that includes language as
well. Some may be a little hard to take
but we’re all adults here. You’ll find
that it’s a story that is hard to put down because you just have to find out
what happens next. It’s not just a
simple romance between two people. I
love how the reader gets the first person of all characters – both good and
bad. You won’t have any trouble
picturing the scenes as they occur – her descriptions are to the point.
This
is one of those rare series that once it’s come to its conclusion, I will go
back and reread the series from start to finish – one right after the
other. The good news is that the next
two titles in this series are scheduled to come out this year so you won’t have
to wait too long. Some may feel that the
book isn’t MC enough but this author tries to show you everything that the
group does. But one thing the author goes
about is showing how possessive Dane and Salvatore are.
